two.1.4) Short description

Consilium Academies are seeking to procure a number of providers for a multi-supplier framework for cleaning services. The main objective of this procurement exercise is to deliver the procurement of a framework that will enable Consilium Academies to source cleaning services for its schools.

There are initially 4 schools in this framework, however, other schools may call off later.

It should be noted that it is not mandatory for Consilium Academies schools to use this framework. Schools will only call off from this agreement if they have a requirement to do so. It is envisaged the number of contractors on the framework will be between 1 and 3

The provision of the service must demonstrate the best value approach and be flexible in its delivery and operation to ensure that the needs and ethos of individual schools are supported.

This framework process is targeted to have a cleaning contract in place to commence in June 2022 for Armthorpe Academy, Heworth Grange School, Thornhill Academy and Wyvern Academy. Please note that this process covers all cleaning services within Consilium Academies schools with full tender costings and proposals for the schools for a contract start in June 2022 for Armthorpe Academy, Heworth Grange School, Thornhill Academy and Wyvern Academy. These details will be further explained in the ITT documents. The process will include the creation of a select bidder list following analysis of SQ documents (within which the scoring criteria is included). Following the analysis of SQ’s the selected bidders will be invited to attend a site survey and tender briefing initially planned for Mid-March 2022. Tender response deadline is planned as early-April and it is envisaged that interviews will take place in late-April. The contract will be for a 3 +1 +1 period (5 years in total including the option to extend for 1 + 1years).
